Rebuild Database Error

[Brucey]

OS- Windows XP on a tried and trusted system, working seamlessly for 2 years. Hoster Version 3.316.

I ran the build song database function and it thro up the following error message during the operation.

Field 'Songs.mfgname' cannot be a zero length string
would you like to see help?

On selecting help it cannot find file jeterr40.chm so cannot proceed this way.
I have checked the database and no manufacturer field is empty, therefor I'm assuming there is a problem with one of the kma files.

No new files added since last rebuild.

OK my questions are as follows

1. Where is this file jeterr40.chm located (I have reloaded hoster)
2. How do I source the kma file with the fault.

Otherwise system performing excellently.

best regards to all

The Help file it is looking for no longer exists. It was for Access97 and wouldn't help anyway.
Delete you Songs.mdb and songs_backup.mdb in C:\Program Files\Micro Technology Unlimited\Hoster\Databases then re-open Hoster. This will force Hoster to build the database from scratch. That should fix your problem.

That thread is confusing as someone in there redirects you to another thread on the same subject again. Just thought I would shorten his search a bit.

None of above worked. Rebuilding database did not sort out problem. Checked the database and no problem found in the manufacturer field which leads me to think this erroneous track has not been added to database but is still lurking in the songs folder. Is there any tool from MTU that checks files for consistency? Cheers
